Home›Species›EcosystemBrowse ByEcosystemIn ecosystem links a species to the larger ecological community it depends on. Wikipedia notes the giant panda is "mostly herbivorous with a diet consisting almost entirely of bamboo and bamboo shoots," tying it tightly to the montane bamboo forest ecosystem of its native range. This dimension groups species that share the same home ecosystem.EcosystemConnectionsSourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)EcosystemFilter Results89 entriesArea (sq km)All543 (1)677 (1)930 (1)1200 (1)2600 (1)4152 (1)6009 (1)6106 (1)8010 (1)12,600 (1)15,000 (1)19,623 (1)19,804 (1)31,500 (1)32,000 (1)35,572 (1)50,000 (1)59,947 (1)90,000 (1)105,000 (1)106,629.5 (1)112,100 (1)121,000 (1)140,000 (1)160,000 (1)180,000 (1)244,106 (1)284,300 (1)344,400 (1)348,750 (1)350,000 (1)371,000 (1)375,786 (1)425,124 (1)501,896 (1)522,000 (1)524,190 (1)887,300 (1)900,000 (1)1,066,000 (1)1,295,000 (1)1,300,000 (1)1,710,000 (1)2,000,000 (2)2,085,292 (1)2,330,000 (1)2,700,000 (1)2,800,000 (1)4,791,000 (1)5,100,000 (1)5,500,000 (1)6,000,000 (1)8,600,000 (1)14,060,000 (1)335,000,000 (1)Show ResultsBrowseCompareAfrican Great LakesEcosystem2 entriesAmazon RainforestEcosystem38 entriesAmazon Varzea ForestEcosystem2 entriesAntarctic PeninsulaEcosystem15 entriesArabian DesertEcosystem6 entriesArctic OceanEcosystem17 entriesArctic TundraEcosystem24 entriesAtacama DesertEcosystem3 entriesAtlantic ForestEcosystem9 entriesBlack ForestEcosystem4 entriesBorneo RainforestEcosystem11 entriesCalifornia ChaparralEcosystem3 entriesCamargueEcosystem2 entriesCanadian Boreal ForestEcosystem16 entriesCaspian SeaEcosystem28 entriesCerradoEcosystem11 entriesChagos ArchipelagoEcosystem4 entriesChernobyl Exclusion ZoneEcosystem10 entriesChihuahuan DesertEcosystem12 entriesCongo Basin RainforestEcosystem5 entriesCoral Reef SystemsEcosystem69 entriesCoral SeaEcosystem5 entriesCoral TriangleEcosystem6 entriesDaintree RainforestEcosystem2 entriesDanube DeltaEcosystem12 entriesDeep SeaEcosystem30 entriesDoñanaEcosystem17 entriesEastern HimalayasEcosystem9 entriesEurasian SteppeEcosystem4 entriesEvergladesEcosystem15 entriesFiordlandEcosystem6 entriesFynbosEcosystem5 entriesGalapagosEcosystem16 entriesGobi DesertEcosystem3 entriesGran ChacoEcosystem4 entriesGreat Barrier ReefEcosystem31 entriesGreat LakesEcosystem40 entriesGreat PlainsEcosystem21 entriesGreat Victoria DesertEcosystem2 entriesGreenland Ice SheetEcosystem2 entriesGulf of CaliforniaEcosystem18 entriesHeathEcosystem30 entriesIguazuEcosystem2 entriesKakaduEcosystem7 entriesKalahari DesertEcosystem5 entriesKarakum DesertEcosystem1 entryKelp ForestsEcosystem15 entriesKruger National ParkEcosystem17 entriesLake BaikalEcosystem17 entriesLake TanganyikaEcosystem7 entriesLake VictoriaEcosystem7 entriesLlanosEcosystem9 entriesMadagascar RainforestsEcosystem5 entriesMediterranean BasinEcosystem30 entriesMesoamerican ReefEcosystem3 entriesMesopotamian MarshesEcosystem2 entriesMojave DesertEcosystem11 entriesMongolian SteppeEcosystem2 entriesMoorlandEcosystem22 entriesMuskegEcosystem1 entryNamib DesertEcosystem4 entriesNew Guinea RainforestEcosystem4 entriesNingaloo ReefEcosystem2 entriesOkavango DeltaEcosystem20 entriesPacific Northwest Temperate RainforestEcosystem5 entriesPampasEcosystem4 entriesPantanalEcosystem11 entriesPatagonian SteppeEcosystem1 entryPrairie Pothole RegionEcosystem2 entriesRaja AmpatEcosystem4 entriesRoss SeaEcosystem7 entriesSahara DesertEcosystem10 entriesSahelEcosystem12 entriesSargasso SeaEcosystem7 entriesScandinavian TaigaEcosystem7 entriesSerengetiEcosystem15 entriesSiberian TaigaEcosystem4 entriesSimpson DesertEcosystem6 entriesSky IslandEcosystem1 entrySonoran DesertEcosystem14 entriesSumatran Lowland RainforestEcosystem9 entriesSundarbansEcosystem10 entriesSvalbardEcosystem24 entriesThar DesertEcosystem6 entriesValdivian Temperate RainforestEcosystem5 entriesWadden SeaEcosystem14 entriesWestern GhatsEcosystem18 entriesYasuníEcosystem1 entryYellowstoneEcosystem20 entriesConnectionsShowing the first 400 of 3,220 connections.SourcesPolar Bear (Ursus maritimus) (U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service)U.S. Fish and Wildlife ServiceContains: Polar BearView the SourceLion (Smithsonian's National Zoo and Conservation Biology Institute)Smithsonian's National Zoo and Conservation Biology InstituteContains: African LionView the SourceBeaver (Bering Land Bridge National Preserve, National Park Service)National Park ServiceContains: BeaverView the SourceComments (0)No comments yet.
